Make sure that kfm is running (kfm has no graphical interface, it is
essentially a daemon that spawns the programs that you want to run.  The
graphical file manager is kfmclient).

Also try starting your programs from an xterm, and see if you get any
error messages.  (start the xterm in your .xsession, if you can't get kde
to start one for you.).
